Permanent waterproofing solutions that protect your home and give you peace of mind during every storm.
Your basement stays dry during the heaviest rains and spring snow melts that hit Massachusetts. No more rushing downstairs during storms to check for water. No more moving everything off the floor before bad weather hits.
The musty smell disappears. Your family breathes cleaner air throughout the house because moisture isn’t creeping up from below. You can actually use your basement for storage, a workshop, or extra living space without worrying about your belongings getting ruined.
Your home’s value increases, and you avoid the massive costs that come with foundation damage down the road. Most importantly, you sleep better knowing your largest investment is protected against water damage.
Academy Masonry has been solving water problems for Massachusetts homeowners who are tired of dealing with wet basements. We understand how New England weather patterns affect your foundation and what it takes to keep water out for good.
We’ve seen every type of basement water issue in this area. From older stone foundations to newer poured concrete, we know what works and what doesn’t when it comes to keeping Kates Corner basements dry.
You’re not getting a one-size-fits-all approach. We assess your specific situation and recommend solutions that make sense for your home and your budget.
We start with a thorough inspection of your basement, looking at where water is coming in and why. We check your foundation walls, floor joints, and drainage around your home. You’ll know exactly what’s causing your water problems before we recommend any work.
Next, we address the root causes. This might mean sealing foundation cracks, installing interior drainage systems, applying waterproof coatings to walls, or improving exterior drainage. We use proven methods that work in Massachusetts soil and weather conditions.
The final step is making sure water has somewhere to go. We install sump pumps when needed and ensure your drainage systems direct water away from your foundation. You get a basement that stays dry and a clear understanding of how the system works.

We handle both interior and exterior basement waterproofing depending on what your home needs. Interior solutions include basement sealing, crack repair, drainage systems, and sump pump installation. These work well for many homes and cost less than exterior excavation.
Exterior waterproofing involves excavating around your foundation to apply waterproof membranes and improve drainage. This approach works best for severe water problems or when we’re already doing foundation work.
You get honest recommendations about which approach makes the most sense for your situation. We’re not going to sell you exterior waterproofing if interior solutions will solve your problem. Every home is different, and we treat it that way.
